This was a real experience staying in a motor lodge property. The owners have done a wonderful job of bringing back this point in time when tourists were just getting on the road and there were places like this all over the country.

This motel is charming and so welcoming. Every detail was well thought from a customer point of view. We loved the coffee in the morning, the quaint decorated, the chairs all around the grounds to sit and chat, the manicured flower beds and the decor of the gift shop to the rooms. All very warm and cozy. Well maintained and very clean. Closetenouth to Dougals to walk to downtown. Longer hike to Saugatuck. Great location close to severa places to eat.

I was worried about this not being clean and not a well maintained property. But it was great. Everything was clean and well maintained. It is walking distance to downtown Saugatuck and some pretty good food. Thanks for hosting us.
